Sikandar* features Salman Khan in the role of Sanjay, a vigilante known as ‘Rajkot ka Raja Saab.’ The plot follows his arrival in Mumbai on a mission where he locks horns with a corrupt politician, played by Sathyaraj. Salman’s character, a fierce yet compassionate hero, is also caught in a romantic storyline, with Rashmika Mandanna portraying his wife. The film blends intense action sequences with a love story, appealing to a wide range of viewers.
Aside from Salman Khan and Rashmika Mandanna, the film boasts an ensemble cast that includes Kajal Aggarwal, Sathyaraj, Sharman Joshi, Prateik Babbar, Anjini Dhawan, and Jatin Sarna. Each of these actors plays a crucial role in driving the narrative forward, making Sikandar an engaging and multi-dimensional film.
The success of Sikandar is a clear indication of Salman Khan’s continued dominance at the box office. With its mix of action, drama, and romance, the film is expected to continue its strong performance in the coming weeks. As the film’s numbers climb, Sikandar has proven to be a major hit, not just for Salman Khan, but for all the talent behind the film.
